As of July 1 I began posting my daily photos over at my main blog, A Fresh Perspective.
I found the need to eliminate one blog, and since this one came second, this is the one.
I hope you will choose to join me over at A Fresh Perspective for daily photos, photo challenges,
and some other fun stuff thrown in.

In keeping with my personal challenge to photograph my children each month on the anniversary of their birthday, today is Keira's turn.  Today she is 12 1/2.  Yes, she will be a teenager in just 6 short months!  
I took this photo while we were taking another walk through our neighbors' woods.  Hence the cut off capris and boots.  :)  It was warm enough for capris and I insisted on the boots because of all the mud I knew we would encounter.  And we did.  Lots of it.  The dog will be getting a bath tomorrow.  :)
On a side note, today is also my husband's birthday.  I was hoping to photograph him as well, but I only saw him briefly this morning before leaving for the gym and him leaving for a 12-hour work day.  I will try to pin him down tomorrow.  :)

I love the light and sun flare in this shot! We've had a teenager for almost a year now. So far, so good!
